About The Event
The NASW Virginia and Metro DC Chapters invite all social work professionals (members and nonmembers) to their joint virtual 2022 Annual Conference March 24-26!
From the comfort and safety of your home, you can easily meet your continuing education requirements for your license renewal—or simply learn new skills and knowledge--by choosing from a record-breaking 91.5 Category 1 contact hours (22.5 live virtual, 91.5 live-virtual-plus-60-days or on-demand-only) when you participate in this three-day smorgasbord of top-quality learning and networking.
Our agenda has nearly 40% more sessions than 2021, including 14 focused on racial equity, 18 with ethics CEs (23.5 ethics CEs total), two LGBTQ sessions, and plenty of Public Health Priority CE-qualifying sessions.
The packed schedule includes four keynotes by nationally known leaders, nearly 30 interactive workshops and expert-led sessions, engaging breakout discussions for networking, annual awards, fun activities, an amazing film debut, and the ever-popular Lunch and Learn! Peruse the full schedule here.
This year’s theme is “Strengthening Connections,” which jives nicely with NASW’s 2022 Social Work Month theme of “The Time is Right for Social Work.” Guided by attendee survey suggestions, emerging topics in social work, the COVID-19 pandemic, America’s racial reckoning, and feedback from membership surveys, the NASW Virginia and Metro DC Conference Committee has put together an exciting and diverse lineup with professional development for every social work specialty—all threaded together with these powerful themes.
In addition, the conference offers informal networking breakouts to chat with your peers about relevant issues, as well as a mailed “conference experience” packet with items to enjoy or engage you in at-home activities synced throughout the three days.
We added the option to register for any single day instead of three days this year and continued our very popular live-virtual-plus-60-days and on-demand-only opportunities. Frankly, you’ll likely want to choose one of the on-demand options simply because of the diverse content, highly ranked presenters, and convenient 24/7 access that maximizes your ability to earn CEs safely whenever it’s most convenient.
